Regent's Place Triton Square

Triton Square won a, well deserved, hard landscape award. (EDCO were the landscape architects and Sheppard Robson the architects). The square is visually dramatic. It opens to the sun and the south but it is engulfed by noise from the Euston Road and battered by gusting winds generated by the high buildings. CABE commented that ' The nature of Triton Square and the surrounding development needs to be considered further in relation to wind disturbance. We wonder whether switching Triton Square and the new tower to create a protected green square, or adding aprons to the base of the tall buildings, would reduce the impact of the wind.'
